im gettin a 400 soon and want to know which nerf bar is better. i will probably end up gettin the standards because they are cheaper. the gibsons are $160 and X-Factors are $190. which is stronger and which would u prefer, thanks

X-Factor. I've never liked ECATV's products.

Why not get the cheaper set they are exactly the same.

i thought the x-factors are more rounded kinda like the new style ACs are, and the gibsons are kinda in the shape of a square. is there an advantage to either of these?i think the gibsons would give more protection but if ur nerfs bars happend to rub against a tree it mite slide off of it easier w/ the x-factors. Also how do Arens compare to these? Thanks

Here is a picture of my gibsons, lets see if we can scrape up a picture of some x-factors they look the the same too me. The Graydon propegs are also about the same.

Hopefully these pics load up right.

These x-factors have a bend on the front but im not sure what model these are for http://alba.buyol.com/Alba/images/itemslarge/5052-5xx.jpg

Here are some graydon pro pegs from a cannondale http://www.anzwers.org/trade/hsdracing/graydonproline/cannondale%20pro%20peg%20pic.jpg

Some like the cannondale need the piece angled in the front so the front wheels can clear. I wish i could find all pictures on a 400ex

it is hard to tell in the pic but are the gibsons upswept like the x-factors? cause i like the looks of them and there is more ground clearance that way. By the way nice quad.

They dont have the bend in the front but they do come up some in the back.
